On Saturday afternoons Mohit goes shopping with probability 0.25, or goes to the cinema with probability 0.35 or stays at home. If he goes shopping the probability that he spends more than $50 is 0.7. If he goes to the cinema the probability that he spends more than $50 is 0.8. If he stays at home he spends $10 on a pizza.
(i) Find the probability that Mohit will go to the cinema and spend less than $50.

The people living in two towns, Mumbok and Bagville, are classified by age. The numbers in thousands living in each town are shown in the table below.
| Mumbok | Bagville | |
|---|---|---|
| Under 18 years | 15 | 35 |
| 18 to 60 years | 55 | 95 |
| Over 60 years | 20 | 30 |
One of the towns is chosen. The probability of choosing Mumbok is 0.6 and the probability of choosing Bagville is 0.4. Then a person is chosen at random from that town. Given that the person chosen is between 18 and 60 years old, find the probability that the town chosen was Mumbok.
John plays two games of squash. The probability that he wins his first game is 0.3. If he wins his first game, the probability that he wins his second game is 0.6. If he loses his first game, the probability that he wins his second game is 0.15. Given that he wins his second game, find the probability that he won his first game.
Sam and Tom are playing a game which involves a bag containing 5 white discs and 3 red discs. They take turns to remove one disc from the bag at random. Discs that are removed are not replaced into the bag. The game ends as soon as one player has removed two red discs from the bag. That player wins the game.
Sam removes the first disc.
(a) Find the probability that Tom removes a red disc on his first turn.
(b) Find the probability that Tom wins the game on his second turn.
(c) Find the probability that Sam removes a red disc on his first turn given that Tom wins the game on his second turn.
